"Of course it's true."
Tan Yun wrapped his arms around Tang Xinying's waist, speaking earnestly, "What you don't know is that during all these years you were away from home, your father has been looking for you. He lives every day with the guilt of not being able to find you."
"He... he really searched for me all these years?" Tang Xinying's eyes glistened with a mix of disbelief and hope.
"Yes, he did. Your father has never given up on you." Tan Yun held her tightly, wanting her to feel the sincerity in his words.
Tang Xinying took a deep breath, the emotions swirling within her.
"I thought... I thought I was forgotten," she whispered, tears threatening to spill.
"You are never forgotten, Xinying. No matter where you go, your family will always remember you," Tan Yun reassured her, gently stroking her back.
As they stood together, a sense of warmth enveloped them, and the bond of family began to mend the wounds of the past.
"When can I see him?" Tang Xinying asked, her voice trembling with anticipation.
"We can go back to the Imperial City soon. Your father is waiting for you there," Tan Yun replied, his heart full of hope for their reunion.
Tang Xinying nodded, determination shining in her eyes.
"Then let's go. I want to see him, to tell him I’m back," she said resolutely.
Tan Yun smiled, feeling a surge of happiness for her.
"Let's make that happen," he promised, ready to support her every step of the way.
"So you see, your father truly loves you. Though you are not his biological daughter, in his heart, his love for you is the same as for Mengyi."
At this moment, Tang Mengyi nodded heavily in agreement, "Yes, Xinying, we are all our father's daughters, both the daughters of the Tang clan, and we are also princesses of the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty."
"Come back with us. If father knows you have been found, he will be very happy!"
Tang Xinying hesitated for a moment after leaving Tan Yun's embrace and finally nodded, "Mhm."
Tan Yun's eyes sparkled as he speculated, "Xiner, you were brought to the Tang clan by Mu Feng Sheng's own hands all those years ago. Since she swapped you and Mengyi, she should know your identity."
"And now, Mu Feng Sheng is still imprisoned in the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty's dungeons. After we return to the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty, we should go ask her about your background!"
After hearing this, Tang Xinying nodded...
On the way back, Tang Xinying chatted happily with Shen Subing and the others, clearly accepting the fact that she was now Tan Yun's fiancée.
Additionally, Shen Subing held Tang Xinying's hand and shared their identities with her.
After learning this, Xinying was greatly shocked!
From that moment on, Tang Xinying never referred to herself as elder sister again, instead calling herself younger sister in front of Shen Subing...
Time flew by, and a little over a year later, Tan Yun maneuvered the Immortal Ship across the Endless Demon Sea, arriving at the Limitless Ghost Palace.
Now, the Limitless Ghost Palace was overseen by Huangfu Tingfeng and his partner Ke Xinyi. Tan Yun summoned the two of them and commanded, "You two, in my name, immediately announce to all cultivators above the refining soul realm on Huangfu Continent to gather outside the Limitless Mystic Valley three years from today!"
"Understood!"
After receiving the order, the two began arranging for the thousands of high-ranking officials in the Limitless Secret Realm to head to the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range, Ancient Cang Mountain Range, and over six million factions on Huangfu Continent, ensuring they gather outside the Limitless Mystic Valley on time!
At this time, Tan Yun and the women used the teleportation array of the Limitless Ghost Palace, taking an hour to return to the Huangfu Secret Realm.
Inside the Guest Hall of the Huangfu Secret Realm, when Tang Xinying saw Tang Xi, the two siblings were overjoyed and cried tears of happiness.
To be honest, although Tang Xi and Tang Mengyi were half-siblings, in his heart, the person he was closest to was still Xinying!
